I had a half assed proposal from a friend in the military who wanted to get a housing allowance, but I don't really count that.
It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
So did anyone else marry the first person who asked? I've always heard that was a sign of being desperate, but heck, I liked the man and thought, "Sure."
Never been proposed to, and if I get my way, I'll marry the first one who asks. (Assuming it's The Boy.)

I always got the impression that most people asked only when the answer wasn't really in doubt.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yep.

Oh yes! He was the right one, at the right time. The proposal itself was pretty lame...I made him do it again, properly.
I'm not sure that I ever actually said yes to the one who proposed on the first date...but I was fairly certain that one was right too. Turned out not to be the case, but that's as it should be.
Since I have been the 'hello, we are in a relationship that is going somewhere' type, actual proposals have seemed incidental. Should I ever be blessed with the right set of circumstances again, I imagine I'll manage very differently.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There was that guy on TT, with the last name "Bigham", that proposed to you.
That totally doesn't count.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I always got the impression that most people asked only when the answer wasn't really in doubt.
Gud, will you marry me?
(I have no doubt the answer will be 'no'. Unless Gud wants to be a smart-ass.)
